Chapter 1045： Live brilliantly, die useless!

Chapter 1045: Live gloriously, die useless!

The woman felt that she had been wronged and was also worried about the drought in the crops. She retorted sharply, "When I was holding firewood, didn't you ask me to hold more firewood? Now you are taking it out on me as an afterthought." !”

“Damn you, who gave you the courage to yell at me?” The man ran towards his wife in the dark.

Originally. He also wanted to slap her, but it turned out that the mother-in-law's hometown was almost on the same boundary as the Li family's ancestral land, and it was covered with ice and snow for most of the year.

This woman has been fighting against the wind and snow since she was a child. If she is unlucky enough to go out and encounters a black bear or a wild wolf, she will have to fight to the death again.

A woman who has grown up like this is very powerful, and is no worse than a man.

Hence, the man who wants to beat his wife is in dire straits.

Before his slap could land on the mother-in-law's face, he was scratched by the mother-in-law's paw. He screamed in pain, and was kicked in the crotch by the mother-in-law. At that time, he turned into shrimps and rolled all over the floor. .

"You useless coward, you can't beat God, so you just use me as dough, right? If you dare to touch me again in the future, I will make peace with you and let you be a bachelor and drink from the northwest wind!" the old woman scolded happily, He spit on it and went back to the house to sleep.

The man who was left behind was watched by the whole village, his face flushed with embarrassment.

Fortunately it was dark at night, otherwise I would have been too embarrassed to see anyone...

Not to mention the commotion in and outside the city, at dawn, a new day begins again.

The result was another excitement, which soon spread to everyone's ears.

It turns out that Commander Chang, who was on duty at the Xindu City Gate last night, was too happy to see the rain. When he stood at the top of the city to look around, he accidentally fell down...

Falled to death!

This is too sudden and too unbelievable!

Although he is a commander guarding the city gate, and his sword may not have been stained with blood a few times, he is always strong and strong in martial arts.

How could he accidentally fall down the city wall and die? !

Some people can't help but have conspiracy theories, but the people around Commander Chang last night were all his trusted soldiers, and there were no outsiders. There was absolutely no one who would be unfavorable to Commander Chang.

And I haven’t heard of any bandits coming to Xindu recently. The barbarians were driven to the border by the Northern Expeditionary Army and almost retreated to the grassland...

In the final analysis, Commander Chang is unlucky.

The Chang family members cried loudly, especially the concubine and several children of concubines.

On the contrary, Commander Chang’s wife was holding her legitimate son in her arms, with a cold and dull look on her face.

In the mourning shed set up by the Chang family, all relatives and friends came to express their condolences.

The emperor even sent Eunuch Feng, the deputy general manager, to the Chang family to announce the decree.

Commander Chang's official rank was promoted one level, and he was rewarded with two hundred taels of silver to buy incense and candles.

Mrs. Chang brought everyone in the house to kneel down and give thanks.

The spectators watching around were filled with emotion and even a little envious.

“The Chang family’s holy love is so strong that it’s a pity that Commander Chang died so suddenly.”

“Yes, the emperor personally granted the marriage to Commander Chang. If nothing else happens, it will be very easy to become a third-rank general in the future.”

"It's a pity that Commander Chang is so blessed. What will happen to the women and children in this house in the future!"

The old man and his wife of the Chang family died early, and most of their relatives were in their ancestral homeland and did not move to the new capital.

Hence, the Chang family usually does not have any relatives to move around and rely on.

Perhaps this is also the reason why the emperor has more faith in the commander-in-chief...

A few days later, because the weather was too hot and the body could not be placed, Commander Chang was burned to ashes and put into a jar. Outside the jar was a fine nanmu coffin, which was carried and parked at Yi Zhuang outside the city, waiting for the family to make a decision.

Mrs. Chang quickly gave everyone in Xindu an answer.

She decided to bring the whole family together to send the coffin back to her ancestors for burial. Then she settled down, farmed and taught her children to read.

Some people feel sorry for her, some agree with her, and some even say that Mrs. Chang’s integrity for her husband is admirable.

People who had been with the Chang family before came to deliver things, helped sell the house, contacted caravans, etc., doing their part and leaving a good relationship.

Who knows whether the children of the Chang family will be admitted to Xindu in the future. If the emperor hopes that Commander Chang will get a score, the future of this child will be good.

During this period, another incident occurred in the Chang family. Commander Chang's favorite concubine was originally weak and sick. Now she missed the deceased Commander Chang and followed her to Jiuquan.

Mrs. Chang had her concubine burned, her ashes placed in Commander Chang's coffin, and she quickly set off.

 Everyone in Xindu discussed it for several days, and there was no need to worry about running out of topics after dinner.

Only the buyer of the Chang family residence felt a little unlucky, so he went to a Taoist priest to have a ritual ceremony, which gave him some comfort...

When these things came to the palace, the third princess was rolling up her sleeves and cutting jade melons, and said smoothly, "This Mrs. Chang is so timid. Wouldn't she dare to live in the new capital without her husband? She wants to provide for her children to study." , isn’t Luo’an Academy better than the academy in her hometown?”

Jiayin had nothing to do. He prepared some herbs and planned to make some purses and sachets to hang outside the bed tent to prevent mosquitoes.

If it is effective, then give another point to the eunuchs and maids of Zhilan Palace.

After all, she and the third princess were bitten, and there was ointment that could be applied.

But the eunuchs and maids were bitten, so they had no choice but to endure, and they couldn't help but scratch their flesh.

Of course, there is ointment for the good news, which can be distributed to them, but this will not make the eunuchs and maids elsewhere jealous, and it will stumbling for everyone in Zhilan Palace from time to time.

Human nature is complex and can never be predicted, so we still have to find ways to prevent it from the source.

At this moment, she was stuffing herbs into her purse. When she heard what the third princess said, she smiled and said, "Mrs. Chang is a smart person."

"Smart? How smart are you?" The third princess was unconvinced and wanted to argue a few words. Shuiling smiled and handed over a silver spoon and persuaded, "Princess, do you want to try scooping it out? In previous years, my young masters were at home. When the time comes, I prefer to eat like this because it quenches my thirst more.”

Sure enough, the third princess took the spoon with interest, took a mouthful of the melon core, then narrowed her eyes happily and mumbled, "Woooo, it's so sweet, so refreshing!"

Having said that, she didn’t forget to give the good news a bite.

Jiayin was not polite to her and called Shuiling to get another spoon, and the two started to fight over it.

The remaining half of the jade melon was naturally given to Shuiling, Shuiyun and Caiyun.

After a while, only the skin of the jade melon was left, and the five masters and servants also had round bellies.

The third princess leaned back on the chair and sighed, "In the next life, I want to be a melon farmer, squatting in the melon field every day, and cutting whatever I want to eat!"

After hearing the good news, he just laughed but said nothing.

She didn’t say that the young and old villagers in Jintan had planted hundreds of acres of jade melons, but they couldn’t bear to eat any of them...

“This wife of the Chang family is really wise and walks neatly!” In the imperial study room, the emperor was also eating jade melon and “praising” Mrs. Chang.

General Manager Yi could not guess what the emperor was thinking, whether he wanted to let the old, young, women and children of the Chang family go, or whether he planned to kill them all.

So he stepped forward with a smile, handed over a wet cloth, and advised, "Your Majesty, you can't eat too much jade melon, or you may feel upset to your stomach. Can I give you a cup of warm tea?"
